At the heart of Vendéen speciality is the brioche tressée, sweet emblem of the region.  Soft and moist this traditional patisserie is as good with breakfast as it is with afternoon tea, just with a knob of butter or some local jam.  The Vendeen brioche is the art of regional patisserie, handed down through the generations.

The gâche, another sweet treat of the Vendée is at home on the table of any food lover. It is a brioche known for its tight dough sometimes has fruits in it and at times flavours of orange flowers, it tickles the taste buds of anyone with a sweet tooth!  It is often served at special occasions and family parties, symbolising the joy of sharing.

On the savoury side, Vendeen cuisine puts local product of the earth and the sea at its heart. The fion, a dry sausage is a favoured aperitif.  Made from pork seasoned with care and refined following traditional methods, the fion has a soft texture and loads of flavour.  There is also the famous jambon Vendéen served with mogettes à l’ail, beans in garlic.

The fruits de mer are also a favourite in local cuisine with oysters from the bay of Bourgneuf, mussels from the Ile d’Yeu and clams and cockles from the Atlantic coast. This beautiful seafood is often served with a glass of local white wine to complete the unique Vendéen culinary experience.
